Permissions basics
Repeating Issues permissions are implemented with Jira Project Roles. After installing add-on two new project roles are available:
| Project role name | Description |
|---|---|
| Repeating editor | Users who belongs to this project role can create, edit and preview repeating details in projects |
| Repeating viewer | Users who belongs to this project role can only preview repeating details in projects in the right panels Repeating Issue section at issue view page |
By default above roles are configured with jira-users and jira-developers (or jira-software-users and jira-servicedesk-users for Jira Software) groups as default members. Also Repeating editor role will be added to all projects available in Jira when add-on create new roles.
Jira administrators can change each project role name, description and default members. Remember that default members are template used only when new project is created and new default members will not be added automatically to existing projects. See below how to update project role members in existing project.
